In comparison to the established size of the [[The Dreadnaught|Dreadnaught]] as a reference for the Hive Destroyers, a rough estimate of the size of these ships is 50-60 kilometers (or 31-37 miles) in length, at least. Some appear larger which may be because they're closer to the viewer in some images, or may indicate different classes.

Hive warships are a class of Hive military spacecraft. These ships form part of Oryx's fleet of his Dreadnaught and are found near Saturn.

History[edit]

A fleet of twelve Hive warships and smaller Tombships accompanied the Dreadnaught during Oryx's incursion of the Solar System.[1][2]

The Battle of Saturn devastated this fleet. Although the Dreadnaught made it through unscathed, the Awoken fleet destroyed many Hive warships with the aid of Harbingers. The vast majority of the fleet was ultimately the victim of friendly-fire, however; when Oryx fired the Dreadnaught's main weapon, the blast indiscriminately obliterated both Hive and Awoken vessels within a set radius of the Dreadnaught.

A portion of the Hive fleet, including some warships, was outside the blast zone at the time and survived but so many ships were lost that Oryx was forced to stall his invasion of the inner system.[1] Four are known to have survived the Dreadnaught's superweapon and one is later seen in the skies of the Oversoul Throne during Crota, Son of Oryx's funeral,[3] indicating they can slide between dimensions.

One particular Hive warship crashed into the Tangled Shore following the battle, which was helmed by In Anânh, Brood Queen.

Another warship, belonging to the brood of Xivu Arath, God of War, is located within the Ruins of Wrath branch of the Shattered Realm in the Ascendant Realm.

During the events of the Skirmish of Titan, a warship of unknown affiliation would be seen crashed in the depths of Titan's methane oceans, acting as the location where the Guardians woud face Uorgotha, Scourge of the Deep and Azshradat, Celebrant of Xivu Arath. The Lucent Brood would also use a warship when they attempted to locate and resurrect Oryx by crashing said warship into the depts of the moon's oceans as a beachhead for their ritual.

Design[edit]

Like the Dreadnaught, Hive warships are rectangular hexahedrons, but where the Dreadnaught's dimensions are consistent along its length, Hive warships taper slightly so that the front of the vessel is narrower than the rear.[4][2][1]

They are equipped with twelve prongs, eight of which are near the "waist". The warships are armed with eight weapons along this waist which fire tracking Solar pulses; the waist is lit with a single orange band, presumably sharing power between guns.[1][2] Like the Dreadnaught they have a single engine, powered by Solar energies.[1][2] They are stated to have living components, and like the Hive themselves are a terrifying amalgam of predator genetics, arcane bio-energetics, and what is considered as Darkness incarnate[5]

These ships seemed to have lost power when the Harbingers were launched, although the Dreadnaught was unaffected.[1]
